Dry roast peanuts in a kadai till the skin splits. You can also roast in a microwave in high power (800W) for 2 minutes. Set aside. I din’t remove the skin of peanuts. You can if you like. Heat oil in a kadai. Add urad dal, red chilli, garlic, cumin seeds, curry leaves and saute till urad dal turns golden in color. Lastly add roasted peanuts and mix well. Switch off the flame and add tamarind, salt. After the roasted mixture is cooled down, grind them to a smooth paste adding required water. Transfer to a bowl. You can add some water if you like watery chutney. Temper the chutney by heating some oil in a small kadai. Splutter mustard seeds, urad dal and curry leaves. Add to chutney and mix well. Serve with hot idli, dosa. Enjoy !

Note

Adjust the quantity of red chilli as per your taste. You can also add chana dal along with urad dal for roasting. You can also add pottukadalai / Roasted gram dal along with urad dal. You can use raw garlic instead of roasting it.
